The School Year Abroad (SYA) Summer Program offers rising sophomores, juniors and seniors the experience of living and learning in France, Italy or Spain for five weeks.
This summer, many students participated in week-long service trips to New Orleans and the Texas/Mexico border to make a meaningful difference in underserved communities.
Senior Projects, a longtime tradition in the Upper School, allows each senior to explore their interests and present their work to their freshman, sophomore and junior peers.
To help freshmen, sophomores and juniors find ways to complete the requirement, Horizon has created a guide to service learning opportunities provided within the Sidwell community.
Members of the Sidwell community approach environmental initiatives on campus as a shared responsibility, as maintenance workers and middle-schoolers alike concern themselves with the well-being of our planet.
On Tuesday, April 11, Sidwell’s chapter of Girls Who Start (GWS), a national organization that supports young women in business, hosted an event at Ballou Senior High School to provide girls with prom dresses and suits free of cost.
Data reveals the most common personality type among Sidwell’s faculty — approximately 30% of the 22 individuals who took the test — to be INFP (introverted, intuitive, feeling and perceiving).
Companies’ reliance on the system raises questions surrounding the morality of using a personality test as a deciding factor in determining job opportunities.
